The tools in which I have explored include:

1. Conveyer

This plugin I downloaded & enabled allows for quick & easy testing on a variety of different devices and browsers. To use this extension, I had to download the visual studio extension by searching for 'Conveyer' in the Tools -> Extensions & Updated dialog. (Conveyer is automatically enabled for web applications. A remote URL is provided which you will use to access the web application from another device). conveyer conveyerRegister

2. Angular.js

AngularJS is a JavaScript framework & is a library written in JavaScript. It can be added to an HTML page with a <script> tag. In my application I made use of the ng-app directive (which defines an AngularJS application), the ng-model which binds the value of HTML controls to application data as well as the ng-bind directive which binds application data to the HTML view. angular 1 angular 2

3. Node.js HTTP Module

The link I used for help: https://www.w3schools.com/nodejs/nodejs_http.asp Node.js has a built-in module called HTTP, which allows Node.js to transfer data over the Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP). node

4. Microsoft ASP.NET & Web Tools 2015(RC) – Visual Studio 2015

I had downloaded these tools in attempt to create and use Azure to deploy my application. However, it was unsuccessful as I was prompted continuously to make a purchase before I proceeded.

Development Environment

To create this software I made use of my personal laptop (Asus - Intel Core i7, 7th Gen) , home internet as well as Visual Studio 2015 Enterprise. This Movie Trivia application has taken me the full six(6) days to complete as well as record all documentation. I made use of multiple tutorials and guides to assist me through this development process as none of the above have been covered in my syllabus at Varisty College.

Of the many guides that I used, I found that w3schools were most helpful. Click here to go to w3schools page!
